Orange Fluffy Sheep posted:Adapt requires a creature to be +1/+1 counter-free, and Growth-Chamber Guardian only finds another if it adapts. Yeah I realized I was an idiot. But you can still respond to the etb trigger with adapt, no?

GCG specifically isn't "when it adapts". It works the same way Hadanas Climb worked with it.

Guardian will actually tutor for free if you cast it with Henge in play

you'd need to pay the nullhide tax, so you'd spend your 5 mana and be left with the 2 mana from the henge

Sampatrick posted:I think you can cast it for 5 pretty easily and at that point you can start churning through your library with a deck full of elvish visionaries. It's a must answer card or else you probably can't win - against aggro you're clogging up the board and gaining life every turn, against control and mid-range you're drawing multiple cards a turn. It's really, really good. Its obviously a hard card to eval unless you throw it in a deck and play it. It could definitely be powerful if a right deck exists. That is a lot of upside to have when you tap it to cast creature spells.

Yo this would be great in modern with faithless loo- oh wait Oh also, it's a wizard, which would make it great in standard with Naban and other card dr- oh wait In all seriousness, with some of the cheap cantrips we've already seen, this could be pretty sweet since it has a reasonably fat enough body to stick around after it's cast.

It's good with radical idea and insight though which might be sufficient. 3 damage is a ton.

Turning every cantrip into lighning bolt/strike seems good. If the coming standard includes much cycling, esp cycling lands, I think this gets pretty busted.

Seems strong. Pretty easy to ramp this out on turn 4 or 5 and then just run over your opponent. Even in a straight up aggro deck probably worth running a couple just to keep the gas coming.

Irencrag Pyromancer seems great for dinner table magic with that BR 2/2 that gets you a card every turn. Lightning bolt every turn until the end of time woo! I'm not saying it's good. I'm saying it's fun.
